  • Tatiana's Outfit: Shiny red around chest area; multicolored wavy patterns elsewhere and in the central star.
  • Notes:
    • When this episode was re-run by Univision, many segments were cut, including the "mouse-in-hair" segment I used to name the episode. However, some introductions between segments were kept that were dropped from the earlier Univision run.
    • Tatiana is holding a mouse during the Prof. Chipitinsky (laboratory) segment. The Prof. asks her to put it back in its cage, but it refuses to go, so she keeps holding it, treating it tenderly and lovingly. Near the end of the segment, it gets away and climbs into Tatiana's hair.
    • In the Chipitinsky segment, Tatiana is wearing a blue dress with a blue-green sparkly chest area.
    • As shown in the later Univision airing, Tatiana changes outfits for the final song by twirling around (a la Wonder Woman). However, this part was cut from the earlier Univision version, leaving it undefined how she suddenly wound up in a different outfit.
    • Aleks Syntek wrote a song on Tatiana's pop album, Vientos en Libertad (1990), "Por Ultima Vez." After Syntek's performance on this show, he and Tatiana do an imprompto duet of a few bars from this song.

An egg gets smushed...

  • Other: Guests to the show announce some activity or program to benefit children, but a notice on screen says it's only available in Mexico.
  • Tatiana's Outfit: Gold
  • Notes:
    • Tatiana brought in her own daughter as the "Estrella" for this show, in the segment that highlights a different child each week for his/her accomplishments in some sport, hobby, or other activity. A little nepotistic, but it gave her fans a chance to see her youngest family member. Reports are that her whole family is very close, and she always brings her husband and daughter with her when touring.
    • The "egg" experiment didn't quite work out; instead of going cleanly through the neck of the bottle, it got rather "smooshed." This was apparently a source of embarrassment for the Professor, as it was referred to on a few occasions in later episodes.

Tatiana has a hair-raising experience...

  • Laboratory: The Professor blows over a brick by blowing into a paper bag, after showing that he can't do it if the bag is open on both sides and the air just goes all the way through.
  • Other: Tatiana visits the children's science museum Papalote Museo Del Niños (which she has been to fairly often on the show), talks about pollution at an environmental booth, and gets into a wheelchair to show what the handicapped must live with. Later in the show, she touches an electrostatic device that raises her hair.
  • Tatiana's Outfit: Blue and white, with multicolored small stars in addition to the big star in the center.
  • Notes:
    • At the end of the magic act, Tatiana has the magician teleport her into the outdoor festival for the next segment.
    • The Professor brings in the setup for last week's experiment, with a new "un-smushed" egg, apparently wanting to re-do it right this time, but Tatiana insists they do a new experiment instead.

Tatiana takes a bite of cake...

  • Mexican Air Date: 16 Apr 2000
  • Univision Air Date: 24 Jun 2000

At the end they bring out a big cake to commemorate the third anniversary of the show.
  • Tatiana's Outfit: Pinkish-purple and white.
  • Notes:
    • Tatiana takes a big bite directly out of the cake without using any silverware; didn't anybody teach her any table manners? OK, I guess she's just showing her impulsive personality.

Tatiana's dress gets wet...

  • Mexican Air Date: 23 Apr 2000
  • Univision Air Date: 08 Jul 2000

  • Tatiana's Outfit: Blue dress with chest area of some sort of sparkly greenish color.
  • Notes:
    • The magician teleports Tatiana to the museum at the end of his act (a stunt that's been done in several shows).
    • Prof. Chipitinsky eats part of an egg at the start of the laboratory segment, apparently in another reference to the failed egg experiment of a few weeks ago. At the end of the segment, though the paper did hold for a few seconds on the water glass, it gives way and the water spills, getting Tatiana's dress wet.
    • Some brief footage from various science fiction movies, including Star Wars Episode I: The Phantom Menace, is used in the Tatimopets "robots" segment.

The phone is ringing... can somebody answer it?

  • Mexican Air Date: 30 Apr 2000
  • Univision Air Date: 15 Jul 2000

  • Estrella: Gustavo P. and Mario P. (Model airplanes)
  • Game: Tatisplash
  • Magic: Jarami
  • Tatimopets: Telephones -- new technologies like cellular and satellite (with Constanza)
  • Laboratory: Egg floats when salt is added to water.
  • Other: "Public-service" video featuring Tatiana and lots of children, urging them to do good things for the planet like pick up litter.
  • Tatiana's Outfit: Orange and purple. These colors alternate all over the outfit; the star is mostly orange, and the chest area is purple.
  • Notes:
    • With this episode, which came soon after the third anniversary show, a number of changes and refinements were made to the format. "Tatinometro" was renamed "Tatisplash", reflecting the use of the dunking tank at the end of the quiz segment which had been in effect for months at this point. The other game segments were eliminated, leaving only the quiz ending in dunking. This apparently left the second team member in the teams of children competing in the games with no role other than getting dunked if his side lost. A new "theme song" announced the Tatimopets segment, though this segment was apparently discontinued just a few weeks later. New captions at the start of the laboratory segment announced it as "El Laboratorio de Tatiana, con Profesor Chipitinsky."
    • El Dia de los Niños is a day celebrated in Latin America honoring children (in the U.S. we just have Mother's Day and Father's Day, but no day specifically for the kids).
    • In the lab segment, a clown brought in a large rabbit or hare to be petted by Tatiana and Chipitinsky before the experiment. Then, when the egg was introduced, they seemed to kid around a little based on the past bad experience with an "egg experiment." When Tatiana asked for salt, this was used as a Spanish-language pun: "Sal" (salt) is also the imperative form of "salir" (to leave or go outside), and Chipitinsky pretended that he was being ordered to go away. This segment seemed to be filmed in a different session; Tatiana was wearing a blue and gold outfit.
    • When two or more people are honored in the "Estrella" segment, there is only one medal, so at least one honoree goes medal-less... not really fair!
    • One "Tatisplash" question required the child to sing a line from Tatiana's song "Papo El Zapato"; the kid required a little coaxing from Tatiana to overcome her shyness about singing.
    • During the "Tatimopets" segment, a rather annoying phone ring continued with the characters not knowing where the phone was to answer it. At the end, it turned out the phone was inside the cat (did he eat it?), and they answered it by shouting into his mouth (it was Tatiana calling).

What's a Zorrillo?

  • Mexican Air Date: 07 May 2000
  • Univision Air Date: 22 Jul 2000
  • Copyright Date: 2000

  • Laboratory: Prof. Chipitinsky shows how to bend a straw in the right way to lift up a soda bottle with it.
  • Other: Two girls, one in a wheelchair, bring roses to Tatiana.
  • Tatiana's Outfit: Yellow dress with bronze-colored chest area and a gold central star.
  • Notes:
    • Tatiana is holding a skunk (zorrillo) during the laboratory segment. She repeats the name "zorrillo" several times in explaining it to the Professor, with those neat-sounding highly-trilled Spanish double "r"s. The Professor actually doesn't succeed in lifting the bottle during the first laboratory segment, but they come back later in the show and do it right this time. Tatiana is wearing a sparkly blue-green dress with a gold chest area during these segments.
    • When being photographed with the "Estrella" guest, Tatiana tells him to say "Cheese." I guess the Spanish "queso" wouldn't work as well.

Mother's Day

  • Mexican Air Date: 14 May 2000
  • Univision Air Date: 05 Aug 2000
  • Copyright Date: 2000
  • Special Theme: Dia de Madres (Mother's Day)

  • Magic: Jarami
  • Laboratory: Prof. Chipitinsky shows how to penetrate a potato with a straw, by holding his finger over the end.
  • Tatiana's Outfit: Silver, with some blue patterns.
  • Notes:
    • Tatiana is holding a tarantula during the laboratory segment. It keeps crawling up her arm, but she always manages to stop it before it gets up into her hair, as some other animals have.
    • During the "Mamá" song, they show various mothers and children in the audience. One little boy grabs his mama's face, a little roughly it seems.

An Un-married Boa...

  • Mexican Air Date: 21 May 2000
  • Univision Air Date: 12 Aug 2000
  • Copyright Date: 2000
  • Tatiana Songs: "La Gallina Turuleca", "Baila Conmigo" (video)
  • Performances: Barbujas: "Popurri de Personajes"; Obra de Teatro "Anastasia": "Paris"
  • Music Videos [Univision 12 Aug 2000]: Salserin: "De Sol a Sol"; Jennifer y Los Jetz: "Tengo Miedo"; Imanol: "Como Canica"; Thalia: "Viaje Tiempo Atras"
  • Estrella: Marco Portillo (Doblaje: movie voice dubbing)
  • Game: Tatisplash
  • Magic: Mago Frank
  • Laboratory: An electric current changes the color of a chemical solution.
  • Tatiana's Outfit: Pink, with multicolored stripes in the chest area.
  • Notes:
    • The "Popurri de Personajes" segment featured such characters as a singing and dancing frog in a top hat. One of them sprays "silly string" into the studio audience.
    • The "Anastasia" segment seems to be from a stage production based on the animated film. (The Thalia video aired at least by Univision [I have no idea what videos are shown in the original Mexican airing] is from the Spanish Anastasia soundtrack, I think; clips from the animated movie are included.)
    • Tatiana is holding a snake during the laboratory segment. They get in a pun there as Prof. Chipitinsky pretends to misunderstand "boa" (a reference to the snake) as "boda" (wedding).
    • The "Estrella" guest is a child who dubs voices in the Spanish versions of movies. Tatiana mentions her own experience doing the Spanish voice of Megara on Hercules while introducing him.

Chipitinsky's hair is not electrostatic...

  • Mexican Air Date: 28 May 2000
  • Univision Air Date: 20 Aug 2000
  • Copyright Date: 2000
  • Tatiana Songs: "Oh Susana" (video); "Brinca La Tablita"
  • Musical Guest: Jaime Camil: "Fiesta de Amor", "Nada es Igual Sin Ti"
  • Performance: Alicia en el Pais: "Feliz No Cumpleaños"
  • Music Videos [Univision 20 Aug 2000]: Servando y Florentino: "Fan Enamorada"; Salserin: "De Sol a Sol"; Sparx: "La Rana"
  • Estrella: Daniela Merhe (Esgrima: fencing)
  • Game: Tatisplash
  • Magic: Mago Herrera
  • Laboratory: Prof. Chipitinsky attempts to give a balloon an electrostatic charge by rubbing it on his hair.
  • Tatiana's Outfit: Sparkly blue-green; gold around chest area.
  • Notes:
    • Jaime Camil's website says that his appearance was filmed on March 17, 2000, and was supposed to be aired in April. However, it doesn't seem to have aired until May, at least according to my own calculations.
    • During the laboratory segment, the two mice that are regularly shown in their cage are on top of the cage instead, but they don't run away. Prof. Chipitinsky tries to "charge" a balloon by rubbing it on his hair, but it doesn't work, probably because his "hair" is fake. Probably, Tatiana should have tried it with her real hair. They seem to get some pleasure out of repeating the word "Electrostatic", one of the longest and most technical-sounding words they've used on this program.
    • The "Alicia" segment is based on the "Mad Tea Party" scene of "Alice in Wonderland", where the Mad Hatter supports the celebration of "unbirthdays" on the grounds that everyone has 364 of them per year (365 on leap years).
    • In the Gregorian Calendar, everybody has an average of 364.2425 unbirthdays per year, given the leap year cycle with special exceptions for century years.

The balloon doesn't pop...

  • Mexican Air Date: 04 Jun 2000
  • Univision Air Date: 03 Sep 2000
  • Copyright Date: 2000
  • Tatiana Songs: "Vamos a Jugar" (video); "Medico Brujo"
  • Musical Guest: Alan: "Si Pudiera Volar", "Volvaré, Volvarás"; Klishe: "Basta Ya"
  • Music Videos [Univision 03 Sep 2000]: Imanol: "Como Canica"; Salsa Kids: "Oye Niña"; Tatiana: "Estrellita"; MDO: "No Puedo Olvidar"
  • Estrella: Fernando Arosamena (Padel: a tennis variant)
  • Game: Tatisplash
  • Magic: Mago Herrera
  • Laboratory: Tatiana sticks pin into balloon without popping it.
  • Tatiana's Outfit: Dark and light brown swirly patterns; yellow around chest area.
  • Notes:
    • In the laboratory segment, Tatiana is wearing a blue-green sparkly outfit with gold chest area, like the one she wore last episode; probably this segment was filmed during the session for that episode, not this one. Whether it was originally part of that episode and moved around by Univision or was like this in the Mexican airing I have no idea.
    • Tatiana kids the professor about last episode's "electrostatic balloon" before doing the current experiment. The Professor pops several balloons, then Tatiana inserts a needle without the balloon popping. I'm still not really sure just how she does this.

Chipitinsky grows a long beard...

  • Mexican Air Date: 11 Jun 2000
  • Univision Air Date: 10 Sep 2000
  • Copyright Date: 2000
  • Tatiana Songs: "Vamos a Jugar" (video); "Chicas de Hoy"
  • Music Videos [Univision 10 Sep 2000]: Ricky Martin: "Hercules"; Salserin: "De Sol a Sol", "Donde Esta el Amor"; Fey: "Subidon"; Magneto: "Sugar Sugar"
  • Performance: Tigger: "El Up de Duper Super Rebotar" (with actors in Tigger and Winnie the Pooh costumes)
  • Magic: Mandrake Jr.
  • Estrella: Pricila (Magic)
  • Game: Tatisplash
  • Laboratory: Flower with split stem inserted in differently colored water turns different colors on each side.
  • Tatiana's Outfit: Pink and purple plaid, with silver around sides and back; silver star. Star is smaller than usual.
  • Notes:
    • Prof. Chipitinsky (laboratory) segment is done in two parts; the first one where the flower is put in red and blue water (on each side of a split stem), and a return later in the show to see if the flower has gained color yet. It hasn't, so Tatiana casts a spell to move forward in time -- the Professor gains a long, white beard, and the flower is red on one side and blue on the other. At the start of the first laboratory segment, Tatiana is holding an iguana, which crawls up her arm and into her hair (animals seem to like Tatiana's hair). The Chipitinsky segments seem to have been filmed at a different session from the rest of the show, because Tatiana is wearing a different outfit: purple and yellow, with a silver central star (purple at the center of the star), and some smaller stars surrounding it.
    • Two Salserin videos are shown; "De Sol a Sol" is used frequently on this show, but the other one, "Donde Esta el Amor" seems to be new here.
    • The Magneto video is of the familiar song "Sugar Sugar" (from the Archies), with Spanish lyrics except for the main "Sugar Sugar, Honey Honey" chorus, which remains in English.
    • "Chicas de Hoy" is an old Tatiana song, originally done as the title track of a 1984 album during her "teen pop" phase. She did a new version of it for her 2000 Vamos a Jugar album, and that is the version used on this show. Tatiana goes up into the audience during the performance of the song.
    • Chipitin's "Electrochip" character (during the game segment) has a new costume, more gray than his earlier black costume.
    • A kid loses in the "Tatisplash" game by mistakenly saying that a triangle has four sides.

What's the deal with that dancing cow???

  • Mexican Air Date: 18 Jun 2000?
  • Univision Air Date: 17 Sep 2000
  • Copyright Date: 2000
  • Tatiana Songs: "Veo, Veo", "Medico Brujo"
  • Musical Guest: Alejandra Avalos: "Una Madre Como Tú", "Quererte a Ti"
  • Performance: La Marca del Zorro: "Tu"
  • Music Videos [Univision 17 Sep 2000]: Onda Vaselina: "Tus Besos"; Fey: "Mi Media Naranja"; Sparx: "La Rana"; Lucero: "El Reflejo"
  • Magic: Mandrake Jr.
  • Estrella: Rodolfo Andrés (Futbol: soccer)
  • Game: Tatisplash
  • Laboratory: They attempt to propel a toy car with a deflating balloon.
  • Tatiana's Outfit: Blue, and light green around chest area.
  • Notes:
    • There was some pretty weird stuff in this episode; I think everyone got a little light-headed as the end of the season approached.
    • I don't know what the "Zorro" act was all about; while there was a guy in a Zorro costume, center stage was occupied by a singing and dancing cow, of all things. Visible udders on the costume showed that this was no bull, but the singing was in a deep male voice anyway. After the act, Tatiana talked with the cow (who was then speaking in a high falsetto).
    • The Chipitinsky laboratory scene was done in two segments. In the first, they never get around to doing an experiment before the Professor slams his hand hard on the table and hurts it. In the second segment, with the Professor's hand in a large cast, he tries to get a toy car to roll across the table under the power of air escaping from a deflating balloon, but it doesn't go. (Maybe it's a Chevy Nova, which allegedly sold poorly in Latin American countries because "No Va" means "Doesn't Go.") Tatiana shoved it across the table then. Tatiana wore a purple, yellow, and silver outfit in these segments, and held a parrot (which didn't talk, but squawked).
    • There seemed to be some pretty avid fans in the studio audience. Several held up signs extolling Tatiana, and one had a larger-than-life, hand-drawn, paper cutout of her.
    • Tatiana once again used the Wonder-Woman-like technique of spinning around to magically change outfits, just before the final song.

Is that the Village People?

  • Mexican Air Date: 25 Jun 2000 (or maybe 18 Jun 2000?)
  • Univision Air Date: 01 Oct 2000 (cut to 30 minutes)
  • Copyright Date: 2000
  • Tatiana Songs: "Payaso Triste", "Hoy Tengo Que Decirte Papa"
  • Musical Guest: Ivonne e Ivette: "Merengue del Pastel"
  • Performance: Muñecas: "6 Animalitas"
  • Estrella: Antonio Diaz (Squash)
  • Game: Tatisplash
  • Laboratory: They balance a book on a rolled-up sheet of paper by putting it at its center of gravity.
  • Tatiana's Outfit: Black around chest; white elsewhere. Central star is white with black star inside. There are smaller white stars in the black parts and black stars in the black parts.
  • Notes:
    • Univision cut the time slot to a half hour as of this episode, with Tigritos spinoff "Rugemanía" filling the following half hour. This reduction was achieved mostly by eliminating the other artists' music videos, but some other segments were probably cut as well (most likely there was a second song from musical guests Ivonne e Ivette, and perhaps other things like a magic trick, Tatimopets, etc.).
    • In the laboratory segment, Tatiana is wearing a purple and yellow outfit with a silver central star (with a smaller purple star within it). The yellow area has small purple stars. She is holding a lizard, which gets hyperactive at times, but she keeps it under control anyway.
    • The book shown in the lab segment has the date "1969" on its spine; perhaps it's the high school or college yearbook of somebody associated with the show?
    • The "Animalitas" segment featured various animal noises, with costumed characters representing the six animals.
    • In the final song, which is about fathers, some of the dancers are dressed up as various occupations (probably symbolizing the different jobs fathers have) such as a policeman, a fireman, a doctor, etc. (Kind of Village People-ish!) Father's Day was June 18, so maybe that was the date this aired, though my own calculations (based on Univision airing the episodes in order, and on the dates of Mother's Day and Children's Day when earlier tributes were given) show this episode airing a week later.

Lots of balloons, but where's the science experiment?

  • Mexican Air Date: 09 Jul 2000?
  • Univision Air Date: 08 Oct 2000 (cut to 30 minutes)
  • Copyright Date: 2000
  • Tatiana Songs: "No Te Quedes Con Las Ganas", "10 Inditos"
  • Musical Guest: Pricila y Sus Balas de Plata: "Feliz Como Una Lombriz"
  • Magic: Mago Frank
  • Estrella: Amor Huerta (Reporter: video shows her touring a Ford factory and reporting on how they make cars there)
  • Game: Tatisplash
  • Laboratory: Some stuff with balloons
  • Tatiana's Outfit: White and pinkish purple; silver central star, and lots of smaller stars in white areas.
  • Notes:
    • Another half-hour Univision hack job; there's no telling what other segments were in the original show that we didn't get to see.
    • In the laboratory segment, Tatiana seems to be wearing the same outfit as in last week's lab segment, so they're apparently from the same filming session. Whether this means that Univision got this part from a different episode or if they were really aired this way in Mexico I don't know.
    • The lab segment doesn't seem to have any real point this time, with no serious experiment; they just seem to be kidding around about the past balloon-related experiments which didn't always work out. At the end, the Professor pretends to be electrostatically attracted in a strong way to the back wall, in a parody of his failed attempt a few weeks ago to get a balloon to stick to the wall by rubbing it on his hair.
    • At the end of the magic trick, when a paper sheet has been cut up to reveal two club-shaped outlines corresponding to the two of clubs Tatiana drew from the deck at the start, they hold up the sheet upside down; the clubs are pointing downward.

The Family of Eggs

  • Mexican Air Date: 16 Jul 2000?
  • Univision Air Date: 15 Oct 2000 (cut to 30 minutes)
  • Copyright Date: 2000
  • Tatiana Songs: "El Calentiamento", "Baila Conmigo" (video)
  • Musical Guest: Pony Choche: "La Pancita"
  • Magic: Mago Herrera
  • Game: Tatisplash
  • Laboratory: Static-charged comb bends stream of water
  • Tatiana's Outfit: Yellow and purple, with silver star that has purple star within it
  • Notes:
    • Another half-hour Univision hack job; there's no telling what other segments were in the original show that we didn't get to see.
    • The "magic trick" consisted of a "family" of eggs (with faces drawn on them) being introduced, then balanced on top of cardboard cylinders on top of a board that was placed atop a row of glasses of water. The magician then yanked away the board and the eggs fell perfectly into the water glasses. It's not really "magic" so much as it's the magician learning to yank the board just right: at the proper speed, in the proper direction, and with the proper smoothness. He probably broke lots of eggs in practice while learning how to do this.
    • For a change, Tatiana is wearing the same outfit in the laboratory segments as in the rest of the show. She also holds a mouse, but it doesn't get in her hair this time. There's a commercial break between two parts of the lab sequence. In the second part they actually do the experiment, which consists of getting a comb statically charged by running it through Tatiana's hair (they have the sense to use her real hair this time instead of the Professor's fake hair) and then showing how it attracts a stream of water from a cooler slightly towards the charged comb.
